We've been staying at the Civilia (formerly Dutch Motel) for several years on our travels between Victoria & Edmonton and it just keeps getting better! The room renovations and updates transformed the generous sized rooms into very pleasing spaces. Now with breakfast included it's perfect!

It is right beside Dutch Lake. Beautiful location. Your stay includes breakfast. However you have to drive 7 minutes to the club house of a golf course in order to have your breakfast. The food was below average. I did not enjoy it. Also, the place was not well maintained.

This could be a wonderful accommodation to stay at with proper upkeep in terms of cleanliness and replacing broken appliances and furniture. Unfortunately was unable to reach the front desk at time of concerns and time of check out, as a sign was posted in the lobby that no staff were available to check out guests.

Our 1 bedroom room with a kitchenette was fine. The hotel is close to the amenities in Clearwater. The staff were very pleasant and accommodating. The included breakfast had dry and chewy scrambled eggs, dry and chewy toast that wasn't buttered or cut in half. The bacon, sausage, yogurt and fruit was fine. There is no lake access directly in front of the property as it appears to be in the aerial shot on the website. A public beach access can be walked to along a busy street that takes about 8 minutes.

Main negative is false advertising. The dining facility is not on site but a 10 min drive down the highway. After that, the property is reasonably priced for what you get. Our room had clean bedding, comfy beds, hot water, great coffee and a powerful shower. It has lovely seating area outside, which backs onto a stunning lake. Unfortunately there was a hole in the wall, furniture was chipped, bathroom towel rail dented and coming off the wall. The restaurant at the golf club only serves set breakfasts (eggs, sausages, potatoes, bacon, fruit and yoghurt).
